-.Dt W95BOOT 8 i386
-.Os
-.Sh NAME
-.Nm w95boot
-.Nd procedure for booting NetBSD/i386 from Windows 95
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-.Xr dosboot 8
-is a program that can boot
-.Nx
-from DOS. However, it must be run
-under real DOS, and not an emulated DOS session. As a result, it can not
-be directly run from Windows 95. Windows does, however, have the ability
-to run a program in ``DOS Mode'', which is to say, Windows can reboot
-itself into stand-alone DOS and execute a program. One difficulty of
-this method is that Windows expects the program to exit, so it can
-restore the system to boot into Windows. Since
-.Xr dosboot 8
-takes over the computer, Windows will be unable to clean up after it,
-and as a result the next attempt to start Windows will also result in
-booting
-.Nx .
-.Pp
-This manual page describes how to set up Windows to boot
-.Nx ,
-in such
-a way as to avoid the problem described above. It assumes that Windows
-is the default OS on your multiboot system, since if
-.Nx
-were the
-default, you could simply use the Reboot option of the Windows shutdown
-menu.
-.Pp
-Begin by creating the directory
-.Pa C:\eNetBSD
-on your Windows system. You may use another name if you prefer; just be
-sure to edit the paths in the instructions below accordingly.
-In that directory, place a copy of
-.Pa DOSBOOT.COM ,
-which can be found on your
-.Nx
-system as
-.Pa /usr/mdec/dosboot.com .
-You can use
-.Xr ftp 1
-or the msdosfs
-file system (see
-.Xr mount_msdos 8 )
-to transfer the file from
-.Nx
-to Windows.
-.Pp
-Next create the script
-.Pa GoNetBSD.BAT
-in that directory, containing the following lines:
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-@ECHO OFF
-IF EXIST C:\\NetBSD\\BOOTED GOTO towin
-ECHO \*[Gt]C:\\NetBSD\\BOOTED
-CHOICE /C+ /N /T+,5
-C:\\NetBSD\\DOSBOOT -u
-ECHO Error booting NetBSD
-CHOICE /C+ /N /T+,60
-
-:towin
-DEL C:\\NetBSD\\BOOTED
-ECHO Y \*[Gt]C:\\NetBSD\\Y
-CHOICE /C+ /N /T+,5
-C:\\WINDOWS\\WIN.COM \*[Lt]Y
-.Ed
-.Pp
-Now, double click the icon for the
-.Xr dosboot 8
-program. Windows will bring up a requester entired ``Program Requires
-MS-DOS Mode''. Select ``Yes'' to create a shortcut. Turn off the
-``Mouse'' checkmark on the window that appears and click ``OK''.
-.Pp
-Now right-click the
-.Pa dosboot.pif
-file that was created. This will be the icon that says
-.Pa dosboot
-with the MS-DOS logo.
-Choose ``rename'' and change the name to
-.Pa GoNetBSD .
-.Pp
-Right click this newly-renamed icon again and select ``Properties''.
-Click to the ``Program'' tab. Edit the first text field to
-``GoNetBSD''. Edit the ``Cmd line'' text field to read
-.Dq Pa C:\eNetBSD\eGoNetBSD.BAT .
-Ensure the ``Batch file'' field is blank.
-Click on the ``Advanced'' button. Make sure ``MS-DOS Mode'' is checked.
-Uncheck the ``Warn before entering MS-DOS Mode'' checkbox if you intend
-to use the GoNetBSD script from another program, such as the Microsoft
-Plus! System Agent. Click ``OK'' to exit the ``Advanced Program Settings''
-window. Click ``OK'' to exit the ``Properties'' window.
-.Pp
-Now you can click the GoNetBSD.BAT icon to boot into
-.Nx .
-.Sh MICROSOFT PLUS! SYSTEM AGENT
-You may also use GoNetBSD.BAT from other programs. For example, it
-could be scheduled to run under the System Agent (similar to the way
-Scandisk is invoked, for example) to have the computer automatically
-switch itself to
-.Nx
-at certain times. In this event, it is
-necessary to uncheck the ``Warn before entering MS-DOS Mode'' setting as
-described above.
-.Pp
-To set up GoNetBSD to run under System Agent, follow these steps. First,
-double click the System Agent icon on the taskbar tray. This will open
-the System Agent window. Select ``Schedule a New Program'' from the
-``Program'' menu. In the ``Program'' text field, enter the complete path
-to the GoNetBSD batch file, for example
-.Dq C:\eNetBSD\eGoNetBSD.BAT .
-In the ``Description'' text field, enter a descriptive name for the
-scheduled event, such as ``Reboot system under NetBSD''.
-.Pp
-Now click the ``When to Run program'' and select the time schedule for
-the switch to
-.Nx .
-It is advisable to use the ``Wait until I haven't
-used my computer for...'' feature to prevent the switch if someone is
-actively using windows at the time the switch is to occur. Now click on
-the ``Advanced'' button, and set a deadline that is shortly after (say,
-two minutes) the start time. If you return from
-.Nx
-before the
-deadline, System Agent will believe that the program did not complete
-successfully, and switch you back to
-.Nx .
-Setting a very short deadline will prevent this.
-.Pp
-Now click ``OK'' in that window and the previous window to get back to
-the System Agent main window, and then close System Agent. Your system
-will now automatically switch to
-.Nx
-at the specified time or times.
-.Pp
-If you wish to have
-.Nx
-reboot to Windows after some amount of time,
-the
-.Xr cron 8
-or
-.Xr at 1
-programs in conjunction with
-.Xr reboot 8
-or
-.Xr shutdown 8
-may be useful.
